業成帝初尚帝妹穎邑公主，主無子，薨，業家上書求還京師與主合葬，不許，而賜謚曰荒侯，傳子至孫絕。 Early in Emperor Cheng's reign Du Ye had married Princess Yingyi, the emperor's sister. She died without issue, and his family petitioned to bring his remains to the capital for burial beside hers. The court refused but bestowed the posthumous epithet Dissolute Marquis. The marquisate passed to his son and then his grandson before the line failed.
